Chapter 101: The Situation in the South
Tu Hai looked at his nephew and subordinate and was also a little helpless, now the contradictions between the Manchus and the Han have increased, and his nephew has suppressed him on both sides because of his identity, just like this matter, don't look at her as someone who offended for the stability of Jiangnan, but those people probably won't take his affection and get to this point.
Tu Haidao: "In this case, then you should find a way to transfer out of Zhejiang first, you can't do anything under his nose, so that you can avoid some conflicts." "Actually, it's to avoid that person, but this is just a helpless method, subject to others, and you can only hope that others won't strike first in the future.
Fan Chengmo said: "The lower official knows the good intentions of the adults, and this time the lower officials came for this reason, so they can only drag the adults to pay attention to the positions in the capital for the lower officials, and the lower officials want to find a vacancy in the capital in the future, and they will not go to the prosperous place in the future!" Fan Chengmo's tone was quite lonely, obviously a little uninterested in his career.
Tu Hai was also shocked when he heard Fan Chengmo's tone: "Why is this so! ”
Fan Chengmo said in a fierce tone: "My lord, why are you staring at me like that, it's not that those people in the south are making too much trouble, they are afraid that I, the Han people, will go to them, if it weren't for Jiangnan who needs to be appeased, send me, who said that the Han people are not Han people and said that the flag people are not the flag people, and now Jiangnan has long been harmed by them!" ”
Tu Hai was also taken aback, and said: "Gong Zhen, you have been in Jiangnan for a long time, could it be that Wu Sangui really has objections?" ”
Fan Chengmo listened to Tuhai's words and said with a wry smile: "In fact, now don't say that Wu Sangui's anti-intentions have been revealed, even the military camps stationed in Jiangnan are a little unstable, although they are Manchurian, but they also want to fight on the battlefield to get rich, both sides want to let this war start, over the years, Xia Guan has seen a lot of Manchurian soldiers who often take the opportunity to find trouble, and the local people are quite bad, if it is not for someone to instigate, they are just a group of big-headed soldiers, how can they often provoke those officials and gentlemen in Jiangnan, so Wu Sangui's people come to Jiangnan, Those people dared to provoke them, regardless of the overall situation of the imperial court. And Wu Sangui also sent someone to woo me! ”
Tu Hai was shocked: "You said that Wu Sangui sent someone to woo you?" "Tu Hai has also thought about Wu Sangui's affairs over the years, in fact, even Tu Hai knows that the three feudal clans have been asking the imperial court for silver all these years, but the imperial court can't take out so much silver now, and today's saints have repeatedly proposed to withdraw the feudal domain, but Tu Hai has always disagreed, now that the treasury is empty, not to mention that Wu Sangui did not show his objection, even if it leaked out, he had to appease Wu Sangui and them, it was really that the government couldn't stand the toss at all, Tu also knew that Wu Sangui would rebel sooner or later, but Tuhai hoped that he would rebel as late as possible, Now the court simply cannot withstand a major war.
But he suddenly learned that Wu Sangui had already started to move, how could this not make Tu Hai anxious.
Fan Chengmo also smiled bitterly when he saw Tuhai so shocked: "Everyone in Jiangnan knows that Wu Sangui has the intention of rebelling, but there are also people who don't want the court to know, so naturally adults don't know." What Fan Chengmo didn't say was that corruption was rampant in Jiangnan, and even officials from Manchurian backgrounds were gagged by Wu Sangui's bribes.
Tu Hai stood up abruptly and asked, "Fan Jinggong, you don't have anything to do with Wu Sangui, right?" Tuhai was shocked, but he was also worried that the people he valued would be confused.
"My lord laughed, I didn't know that Wu Sangui was just using me, so I just thought it was a snake with Wu Sangui and didn't agree."
Tu Hai sat down and waved his hand weakly, and asked, "Those officials from a full background were also bribed by them?" "Don't look at Fan Chengmo didn't say anything about the specific situation in Jiangnan, Tuhai has already guessed that he is not far from ten, he is full of people today, how can he rest assured that the Han people in Jiangnan are there! However, none of the Manchu officials in Jiangnan reported the news of Wu Sangui, which shows that they were blinded by the immediate interests and coveted Wu Sangui's silver, which was controlled by Wu Sangui.
"My lord is smart, it's true, there was also an official in Jiangnan who was loyal to his duty and wanted to report to the imperial court, but after a few days, the official died violently in office, and because of this, everyone in Jiangnan didn't dare to be shocked, afraid that they would be next! And even there are people from Wu Sangui in the court. And there are also some people who want to take the opportunity to make military merits, but they don't think it's a big deal to see the excitement, and they haven't reported to the court, and the two parties seem to have a tacit understanding. Fan Chengmo sighed.
Jiangnan was already hostile to the Manchus, and although Wu Sangui was also a Hanchen who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the people in Jiangnan would not support Wu Sangui. Tu Hai also felt that there would not be war in the Jiangnan area so early. But now who knows that even the nails of the imperial court in Jiangnan have been bought by Wu Sangui, and it is no wonder that Wu Sangui's news has not reached the center.
There are still those who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, worried that Wu Sangui's trouble is too small and will affect their military achievements, so many people are making trouble, Jiangnan is afraid that it will be a mess!
"That's it, it's okay if you leave that land of right and wrong early, I'm afraid your identity will also make Wu Sangui attach great importance to it, and I'm afraid that you will be the first to open the knife at that time." Tu Hai's words are right, Fan Chengmo was originally a Han Chinese, if Wu Sangui rebelled, he would have to win over people like Fan Chengmo, if Fan Chengmo did not agree, I am afraid he would have to sacrifice the flag.
"Thank you, my lord, for understanding the hardships of the lower officials, the lower officials really have no choice." Fan Chengmo got up and saluted Tu Hai.
Tu Haidao: "You don't have to thank me, even so, you should follow me to the front of the palace!" Explain the details to the Holy One. ”
Fan Chengmo was shocked: "My lord, but the saint may not believe the lower officials!" This is true, today is also an emperor who is extremely strict against the Han people, even if the Fan family has entered the Han military flag, I am afraid that today I trust the Manchurians in Jiangnan more.
Tu Hai waved his hand to comfort Fan Chengmo and said: "Don't worry about the pilgrimage, he is also a young talent today, not to mention that the old man's face is still a little bit sage." ”
Fan Chengmo was overjoyed and said, "Have you already served the Holy Lord?" "No wonder Fan Chengmo has such an attitude, since ancient times, the relationship with the emperor has affected the future of the minister, if Tuhai is close to the saint, even Fan Chengmo will have a lot of benefits as Tuhai's cronies.
Tu Hai didn't blame him when he saw this, and said: "You just need to see the old man's niece being named a concubine." ”
Fan Chengmo frowned a little and said, "My lord, aren't you the most disgusted with this kind of thing, how did you send your niece to the palace." ”
Tu Hai smiled bitterly: "The saint is suspicious, if the old man doesn't let his niece enter the palace, how can the saint believe the sincerity of the old man!" And the matter of the draft has always been something that only the saint can decide with a word, and how can he be a courtier. ”
When Fan Chengmo saw Tu Hai like this, he couldn't bear to say: "Adults don't have to be sad, fortunately it's a niece, but the saint has learned to be a little family, it's really... Alas..."
